Virgin Media offers unlimited DRM-free music
Virgin Media has announced it is to dip its toes into music streaming, in a bid to beat the online pirates.
In a partnership with Universal Music, Virgin Media will offer access to a massive library of DRM-free music for a yet-undisclosed fee (rumoured to be the price of a couple of albums a month) which will allow Virgin Media broadband customers to both stream and download as many music tracks and albums as they want from Universal Music's entire catalogue.
In a press release, Virgin Media has labelled the music service as "ground-breaking" saying it is: "designed to bring about a rapid and permanent change in the way UK consumers buy and listen to music."
